Summary
Hardworking and passionate job seeker with strong organizational skills eager to secure entry-level heavy equipment operator position. Using my experience and ability to work well in a group setting, I am ready to help the team achieve company goals. As a self sufficient employee and self starter, I pride myself in my ability to handle multiple projects simultaneously with a high degree of accuracy.
The quality I most like about myself is how adaptable I am as well as able to follow directions and protocols in a timely manner, but still asking questions when unfamiliar with the task.
